What containers? Docker?

Yeah I am wondering as well. As of now I see no advantage... 🤔

Interested as well

@620hun yes

@Prometheus The Docker website is a good start. Their docs are meh, but they give you some pointers to start out, then you can Google the rest. If you have any beginner question, I can help, because I dug my way through it a few weeks ago.

Thanks.. I already read the docs. Searching for some beginner level tutorials.. like u said, i think we need to Google to form a complete understanding..

@620hun @Prometheus
Agreed. The official docs and tuts aren't very helpful 😩

@Ashkin @Prometheus Also, even tuts from 2016 are considered outdated, so be careful 🙄

@620hun joy!
I ran into that same issue this week with ReduxForm 😠

@620hun oh.. 😥😠

Still does not really help me and tell me why I should use docker

@dsteiner Simply speaking, a container is a disposable VM that can be run on most platforms without any further configuration. You set it up once, and it'll just work. It makes deployment very easy, because the container runs in the same Docker image, so there aren't any platform specific changes needed. It also makes development flexible, because you can throw away containers with a single command. So it's like having a camper van. You can drive it anywhere, and the inner setup will stay the same, you can sleep in the same bed, etc.
